Not sure if this is where I should be posting but wanted to get some thoughts on getting a different TV. We currently have a 2012 Toyota Tundra with the 4.6L V8 which has a max tow of 7900lbs. That obviously limits us to certain travel trailers. We had picked one out but life stepped in and we had to hold off on the purchase. We are now in the position of planning our purchase over the next year or so. (give or take) My wife and I have been discussing the possibility of trading out our current TV for another that can handle more weight for towing. I've been looking at 3/4 ton trucks as well as the Ford F150 with the max tow pkg. I've read up some on the diesel vs gas engines. Our plans would be for short trips (weekends to 1-2 weeks off traveling) with the eventual plan of long term travel. Most likely, we would buy used. I guess my question would be.........what's the thoughts of engines for towing and longevity. (We usually keep our vehicles forever)
